Its a 1984 Honda 200ES, dad picked it up last night from a guy the next town over. When he got it home it was seized, but the guy said it ran last year, so he put some saw gas in the cylinder and it broke free, but it dosent feel to have the comporession it should.
As of now what it looks like I need to purchase in the future:
Rear Fenders
Front Fender
3 tires (all dry rotted, one holds air)
Rear brakes
Starter, try to use it and it just gets really warm, think its burned up
Fork rebuild, unless I find a good set to put on it
New top end possibly, not sure yet, might need to be bored .10over also, find out if and when I tear it apart.
I'm sure I'll find more that it needs tomarrow when I start messing with it, I'll keep ya'll posted.
Here are some pics of it as of this afternoon.

Well I got it to start, we had to pull it behind our other Big Red, and she smokes like crazy, and has no balls. So sounds like I definetly need to overhaul the top end, thats gonna be my project one of the weeks this summer, just gonna bore it .10 over and put a 10.5:1 wiscoe pistion in it. I was driving it around tho, was a gigantic cloud around me tho, was deffintely burning oil. I'll keep you guys posted!

You might just have to take the starter out and lube it up. The starter on my 200es was the same way when I got it, little bit of lube and a few minutes of turning it and it works better than anything else on the trike.

Finally made some progress on it, 2 years late:lol: Been on the back burner for a while. Got the engine back today, finished painting the frame, racks, headlight gaurd, and pegs. Hopefully assembling most everything tomarrow.

Anyone know where I can get a good rear axle? This one is major FUBAR. One hub is welded on, along with the axle nuts....and the other axle splines are near smooth.......
